UFG1C101MPM

The UFG1C101MPM is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UFG “Fine Gold” MUSE acoustic series, engineered for high-grade audio and AV equipment. It is a radial lead, polarized can-type capacitor specified at 100 µF and 16 V, delivering audio-oriented performance and reliable power decoupling in consumer and professional AV systems.

Designed with state-of-the-art etching techniques and RoHS compliance, this part combines compact packaging with defined ripple handling and a proven thermal endurance profile for stable operation in audio circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and tolerance of ±20% (−20% to +20%) for stable filtering and coupling in low-voltage audio stages.
• Audio-Focused Series — Part of the "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, specified for richer bass response and clearer high end in AV and high-grade audio equipment.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package with 3.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 1.15 × D: 0.8 cm) for through-hole PCB layouts.
• Operating Range & Lifetime — Rated for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C with endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C under rated voltage conditions.
• Ripple Performance — Specified ripple currents of 128 mA at 120 Hz and 192 mA at 10 kHz to support power smoothing and decoupling in audio power paths.
• Polarized — Polarized electrolytic design for DC coupling and power rail stabilization in amplifier and supply circuits.
• Environmental Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• High-grade AV equipment — Power supply filtering and decoupling in receivers, amplifiers, and home theater components where audio fidelity matters.
• Audio signal coupling — Coupling and bypassing in preamplifier and line-level circuits to support clear high-frequency response and controlled bass.
• Power smoothing in compact designs — Through-hole radial mounting for small PCBs requiring reliable bulk or local decoupling at low voltages.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-tuned performance: Part of Nichicon’s Fine Gold MUSE acoustic series, providing the series’ characteristic richer bass and clearer high end for AV applications.
• Compact radial can: Small footprint (L: 1.15 × D: 0.8 cm) and 3.5 mm lead spacing enable dense, through-hole PCB layouts without sacrificing capacitance.
• Defined ripple capability: Rated ripple currents of 128 mA (120 Hz) and 192 mA (10 kHz) support effective smoothing in audio power paths and local decoupling.
• Thermal endurance: Specified to operate from −40 °C to +85 °C with 1000 hours endurance at 85 °C, providing predictable behavior under elevated-temperature conditions.
• RoHS compliant: Meets applicable RoHS directives for restricted substances, supporting regulatory requirements for commercial and consumer electronics.
